• Help ensure processes are clear, scalable, well-documented, and consistently executed across EMEA.
• Take the opportunity to lead key People & Culture programmes and initiatives in partnership with regional and global stakeholders.

• Triage and resolve employee relations issues by diagnosing concerns early, recommending appropriate actions, and partnering with relevant COEs or stakeholders when needed.
• Balance empathy with accountability when handling sensitive people matters.
• Ensure employee relations matters are managed professionally, fairly, and with appropriate documentation.

• Maintain operational rigor by tracking themes, ensuring documentation is complete, and bringing structure to recurring people processes.
• Support Foxit’s strong HR technology landscape by helping optimize systems, reporting, and data-driven decision making.
• Use people data, trends, and recurring themes to help improve process quality, manager support, and regional visibility.

• Collaborate closely with fellow People & Culture team members to ensure a consistent and high-quality employee experience across EMEA and, where needed, APAC.
• Partner cross-functionally to support organizational change, team effectiveness, performance alignment, and employee engagement.

• 7+ years of total HR experience, including meaningful experience working directly with managers in fast-paced or high-growth environments as a Senior HR Generalist, HR Business Partner, or similar role.
• Bachelor’s degree in Business, HR, Organizational Psychology, or a related field.
• Master’s degree or professional certification, such as CIPD accreditation, is preferred.
• Strong HR foundation across employee relations, performance management, manager coaching, HR operations, and people process execution.
• Execution-oriented partner who is comfortable operating in the day-to-day details while maintaining sound judgment and strong follow-through.
• Strong manager coach, able to guide frontline managers through performance conversations and early employee relations issues with clarity and confidence.
• Operationally strong, with the ability to bring structure, organization, and discipline to people processes.
• Good judgment under pressure, with the ability to balance empathy, accountability, confidentiality, and business needs.
• High integrity, fairness, and discretion when handling sensitive matters.
• Strong comfort with HR systems, reporting, and people data, with the ability to help optimize tools and support data-driven decision making.

The HR Business Partner helps shape engaging employee experiences, supports organizational change, and partners with the business to drive performance, capability, and a culture where everyone can do their best work.
